Abstract
This Project presents a critical examination of Aristotle's concept of gender essentialism, which posits that women's biology determines their social roles and capacities. Through a liberal feminist lens, this analysis challenges Aristotle's hierarchical and binary view of gender, arguing that it perpetuates harmful stereotypes, limits women's potential, and reinforces patriarchal norms.
